  1. This kid is going to volunteer to carve the turkey every year now.
  2. She looks like she just stuck her head in a bee hive. Turribad.
  3. I have a Jazz bass that the same kind of deal. It can go from active to passive with the flip of a switch and has concentric knobs that do...a bunch of stuff I always forget and have to dig in the case for the explainer. I have always played it out passive with my classic rock/country band because that's the sound I go for with them and...reference can't remember all the shit it does in previous sentence.
  4. This whole forced conscription, disproportionate effects on minorities, drug and discipline issues just reeks of the late 60s/early 70s US Army in Vietnam. Grab a bunch of folks off the street to go to die in a war that they don't understand or believe in. Act surprised the they self-medicate/check-out when they get there. I'm predicting a Russian Dien Bien Phu. Sevastopol would be a prime location, but Mariupol may work too. Full on troglodyte communities of guys who have just said, "Not my monkey, not my football, not fighting anymore." Hell, why not both?
  5. This. You traumatize people during training, then send them into a combat zone where they're guaranteed to be traumatized, then you're surprised that they have an outcome you don't want them to have with respect to that trauma? To act as if all is normal? So fucked.
  6. Modern war, nuke or not, is just not worth it. Find a way to make a deal.
  7. Is he volunteering? Because there’s some shit I need taken care of and I don’t want to pay for it. Literally.
  8. Won’t have the same effect on your Kia.
  9. Looks like Cotton Hill if he was a giant pussy instead of war hero.
  10. No no. Helobious has told us there’s no new tales to tell from that war.
  11. So much this. There are assholes everywhere (ahem, perhaps on this very board!) and they stick out because they are assholes, not because they are Christians or atheists. But as long as I’ve been politically aware (early 80s) there’s been an overwhelming number of Christian assholes hogging the spotlight in this country. They’re very good at “lookit me!!!!!” That said, I know many atheists and Christians who are wonderful people. We don’t talk about them because they don’t stand out. They’re just busy living their lives and not being assholes.
  12. I was at the ‘89 Jamboree. Getting to see the President speak was a big deal to me and many others. It was the first time I’d seen a President in real life (tfg is the only one I haven’t seen in person since). It was pretty cool hearing the POTUS essentially telling us to keep up the good work and we were going places. It was totally apolitical. If the same speech was given by my basketball coach I wouldn’t have been surprised. Also got to hear Lee Greenwood sing that one song - you know the one - like every other day. That became a bit of a joke. In any case, it was exactly what it should have been - encouraging young people to do their best and stay on the right path. Not hard at all rhetorically and something all Americans can agree on. I found tfg’s speech abhorrent and it’s pretty entrenched in my memory as a prime example of his malevolence. He was flat out trying to corrupt youth. I’m sure I said so here at the time. But literally every day during those black years there was something off the charts. They better bin Laden that mf’er or his grave is gonna make the porta potties at ACLFest look like the gardens at Versailles. I know I intend to do my part. But seeing him suffer through these trials will be some small consolation.
  13. Pros/cons? I’ve been seeing more and more around town and I’m intrigued.
  14. Cool. I just bought the 12-inch single. We'll see if it has the same insert.
  15. What's the source for this?
  16. Anyone else notice how muddy that ground looks in recent vids?
  17. I just never get tired of watching Russian shit get blowed the fuck up.
